Advice on Prolia please

[102637]

Has anyone had Prolia injections for osteoporosis caused by steroids who has GPA

If so,did you have side effects from it?

Is there a natural treatment for osteoporosis without more drugs???

We take a tablet to treat one thing which in turn causes something else that needs treating .....so on it goes!!!

We have someone on the PMRGCAUK forum who raised her bone density from -2.1 (requiring intervention) to -1.6 (no treatment required) in a year just by exercise, eating well and calcium/vit D/vit K2 supplements (I think the vit K2 was supplements as well as dietary K2 but I'm not sure).

I'm sure she'd be delighted to tell you about her experiences - she really has read up on it very widely and her info is reliable.

I took prolia for osteo caused by steroids for M.S. I did not have problems. It is the long term effects that scare me.

Hi Monique

Sorry only just replying my iPad is playing up

Do you mean you stopped the prolia because of long term effects from it or from osteoporosis??

[Monique1649]

Thank you!

Hi I've been having for about 4 years now - every 6 months. It's very expensive and GP's don't like to pay fir it. I e had no amused effects, previously had various tablets that did make me feel awful hence consultant recommended change over to injection. Hope it helps. Take care.
